We left camp and refuelled in St George (cheapest fuel to date $1.989/litre). I noticed the suspect tyre was down again so headed to Balonne Tyre Repairs run by Damian Lee and his family. Excellent service, straight onto it and found a leaking valve extension was the problem so carried out a quick repair and we were off to Roma.
We had lunch in Roma and we were in luck as the Outback Sculpture tour was in town so we were able to check them out. Really very good, the racehorse and jockey won the People’s Choice Award, but I also particularly liked the eagle and the giant vase of flowers.
We moved onto Miles which is a further 120 kms down the highway. We did a shop at the local IGA (we are trying to support the locals in these small towns) before setting up camp in the freecamp by the river. Jenny is excited as she gets to have fire again tonight (but she has to have it finished in time so she can watch Home and Away – bloody TV reception is to good☹️)
